SHUB NIGGURATH (MEXICO)
Formed by members of TORMENTOR and DEMOGORGON in early 1990. With the
stable line-up of Arturo (vocals), Eduardo (bass), Julio (guitars) and Paco
(drums) they released their first official demo “Horror Creatures” which gained
them notoriety in the local and international scene. Soon they added another
member as Eduardo switched to guitars and a new Eduardo was now on bass. They
released their first vinyl attack in the 7” e.p. “Unknown adorer”. Their music
was a brutal attack of satanic death/black metal influenced in the bands all
these demons praised: VENOM, MAYHEM, MERCYFUL FATE, CELTIC FROST, MORBID ANGEL
among others. Soon their devilish live appearances were followed with a cult
status. Later they decided to release a new 7” e.p., “Blasphemies of
Nether World”. Soon after, and due to personal problems one of their guitar
players, Eduardo decided to leave. Being a member since the very beginning, they
decided to continue as a four piece as no one was capable enough to fill the
spot. It is then that they decided to record a mini album in 1994 titled
“Evilness and Darkness Prevails” with a better production and a more mature
sound. Due to circumstances out of their control, it was only Arturo and Julio
left in the band. One day, Julio was approached by long time friend Oscar from
CENOTAPH in a time where they needed a guitar player. Knowing their music and
liking their style, Julio accepted and became a full time member of CENOTAPH.
Meanwhile lead blasphemer Arturo, was pursuing to create some projects to
continue with his hunger for evil mayhemic sounds in bands like ANCIENT AEON.
But much to his anger, nothing really turned out as he wanted.
